I saw an ad sometime back in March 2026 for a chihuahua for $400.00 and we had to pay by gift cards. After we got a hold of her, she said she needed more money. I told her that is all we were not going to send her more money. Then I decided to call the Better Business Bureau to see if they knew anything about it. Her name is Phyllis Wing and her address is 400 1st St., Watson, MO. We were going to go up there and pick the dog up but she said no. I want to warn others about this.

Online Purchase - Pet Scam

I was looking for ragdoll kitten rescues and came across this website. The website and application both looked sophisticated, but when I went to pay via Zelle, my bank held it for a security review. In that time I asked for vaccination records for the kitten and they responded with the fact that they would send records once payment was received. Ultimately I canceled the payment as there are no reviews for this business and the address listed on the website is not an exact address. When I told them I would not be sending payment they kept asking for payment. They now have my mailing address as a result of the emails back and forth.

Nov. 19 2025 BioSlim Ad said it comes with 60 day money back guarantee. I only wanted to try this product, because of guarantee. I preceeded to purchase 180 day supply for $294.00 plus tax $21.32, a total $315.32. I paid with PayPal $315.32 and accidently paid twice! Called contact number on PayPal receipt and told them the mistake, they told me they could not cancel, because paper was already in progress. They said we will send you 6 more bottles of BioSlim, and refund $220.72 of the $315.32, leaving a balance $94.60, which I agreed to. I waited for 18 days for BioSlim to be delivered, on Dec 6 2025. I used BioSlim everyday, 2 times a day for 6 weeks and my weight was exactly same weight i started. I started the return well before 60 day deadline, But i haven't seen any additional refund back into my PayPal account! The only way you can communicate is @ [email protected] or [email protected], and you only can communicate when they e-mail you back, AND THAT NEVER HAPPENS! I have every e-mail that shows due process to get my refund, and I can send you e-mails at your reqeest.

Travel/Vacation/Timeshare

I was directed to this site when searching for flights to CA from OH. I booked flights for my husband and myself for 18. June, 2026, return on 28. June, 2026. Everything went smoothly online. I printed everything. SmartCheapFares took my payment and the paperwork I printed states "a confirmation mail along with your e-tickets will reach you shortly." That email never came so I called them to inquire on our "successful booking." The first lady I spoke with told me that no luggage, not even a purse or carry-on was permitted on the flight. She wanted to add a fee to our booking. I said I would work with the airlines directly regarding luggage, as SmartCheapFares printed documentations states that "Additional baggage fees may apply as per the airline(s) policy." So, they put me on hold. When she came back on the line, she stated that they have confirmed our return flight on 28. June but she can not confirm our departure flight without an additional $500 each??? I was shocked and stated my confusion. They referred me to the website. All they would ever say to any of my questions or concerns was, "the website states that..." How can they charge and sell an itinerary and not an actual ticket??? I have the printed document regarding my (non)booking. Nowhere on my printed document does it state, "stand by." The tickets are non-refundable but how can they NOT give me my money back if I never had confirmed/actual tickets in the first place? So now, I'm worried, that the "confirmed" return flight isn't actually legit either. I called Southwest and they have no record of our booking! So, there's no flight home either! All I want is my original $413.26 back so that I can book REAL flights to CA in June. What about those people who don't realize these are not confirmed tickets and show up for a flight they do not have actual tix for?! It is NOT clear on the website that these are not actual tickets, rather the itinerary for a potential flight they may not even get on.

I was told to do a certain number of tasks to get paid. And when you would get almost done, it would give you a negative balance and you would have to clear the negative before you could continue. I stopped. And when I woke up the next morning, somehow, they had taken 5200.00 out of my bank account. I have no idea how they did that when I never shared any information about my account numbers, Bank name or anything. I'm baffled how they took my money. ?? They did it through my cash app account, I think. I reported it to my bank.

I went to have my waterpump replaced at Limbaugh Toyota in Ensley and they attempted to grossly overcharge me for the repair. The first estimate for 2375.00 was totally insane. When I returned to getvthe estimate they changed it to 1699.00 to save face. The whole vibe was its obvious they've been caught overpricing. I'm not a certified mechanic but I fixed it myself in literally 20 mins. The invoice said 1125.00 for labor.

I placed an order through an online store (https://fascinate-store.com/en-us), but I have not received the merchandise. It has been over one week since the purchase, and no valid tracking information has been provided. I attempted to contact the merchant using the email address listed on their website([email protected]); however, the email is invalid and does not exist. This indicates that the merchant may be fraudulent and is not fulfilling their obligation to deliver the purchased goods. I have not received the item and the merchant is unreachable? As of now, this fraudulent website is still operational. I know that many others will inevitably fall victim to this scam, just as I did—and that is unfortunate news.
